Jurek wins again!

The Washington Post: Marathon Melt

Badwater: An insanely hot day, a vegan runner, an ultramarathon... and Scott Jurek wins it again. Of course, the Washington Post doesn't mention that Jurek is vegan, which is a good and a bad thing, I suppose. Sure, let's normalize veganism, but it seems like the story would pick up, as others have, on Jurek's out-of-the-ordinary dietary regimen, which he credits with his ability to win the 135-mile race.
